Information Security

We have experience helping organizations assess their security and regulatory requirements. Whether it’s complying with CMCC, HIPAA, or PCI compliance, or protecting your confidential client information, we help you create and implement a plan that’s right for your organization.

• Security Governance
• Network Security
• Vulnerability Scanning
• Regulatory Compliance

An ongoing security program provides documented policies, procedures, guidelines, standards, and baselines to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information assets.

There are six features of a Security Program:

1. Infrastructure Security Policy
2. Security Incident Response Plan (SIRP)
3. Cybersecurity Awareness Training
4. Periodic Vulnerability Scans
5. Third Party Vendor Management Program
6. Risk Assessment/Gap Assessment

In complex organizations or in regulated industries, having a strong security governance program is a best practice. Security Governance defines and supports the security program and provides the framework for the oversight. As our cybersecurity experts guide you through the process of creating a robust security program, they will also assist with any third-party security/risk assessment efforts and make recommendations on resolving issues an assessment may find. Security governance includes:

• Risk Management
• Change Management
• Compliance Management

Training + Education

The largest component of security focuses on people’s habits, practices, and nature. Technology cannot overcome human behavior, at least not today. We advocate strong cybersecurity awareness training and provide our clients ongoing education about current threats.

Why use Aldrich Technology for your security education needs?

Employees are often the greatest risk to a company’s cybersecurity exposure. We help create strong policies for our clients and reinforce ongoing education. It is also crucial for company board of directors to be aware of the organization’s security program and the risks involved.

Security Incident Response

You hear it all the time, “It’s no longer a matter of if, but when a security incident will happen”.  No amount of technology or monitoring can prevent someone from accidentally clicking on a malicious link in an email or unknowingly providing their login credentials to a hacker.  Our cybersecurity professionals will help you put in place proactive measures to manage the chaos cybersecurity incidents often cause.

From malware to phishing scams, there are multiple security threats ready to attack your systems at any given point in time. The best defense is to be proactive in applying the right protective measures to strengthen and shield your systems. Network security is included in our ongoing IT services for clients.

While we can’t claim to mitigate every potential risk for your organization, we implement the best solutions for each client’s needs and budget.

What you don’t know can hurt you. Having a regular customized network scan, like a check-up, helps you identify any new risks and take action to resolve them to keep your business running smoothly. Our scans search for known vulnerabilities within your systems and devices that are exposed to the internet and infrastructure that is not.

Why do we need vulnerability scanning and what do the scans provide?

We help you rest assured that any new vulnerabilities are discovered and dealt with quickly to keep your data and your customers’ data safe.. Our scans test the security of your systems and devices that are exposed to the internet and infrastructure that is not. You get real-time results, analysis and recommendations for corrective action.

Third Party Risk Management

If your company stores sensitive data to the cloud and you have outside third-party vendors who access that information, it’s important to know how those vendors think about their own security. Ask yourself, “do these organizations practice good security hygiene?” After all, they will have access to some of your most critical assets… your data.  Maybe you have purchased cyber liability insurance recently.  Did they ask if you have a vendor management program in place?  Our cybersecurity professionals can walk you through the process of creating a vendor management program required by many security and Industry regulatory compliance frameworks.

Why do I need a vendor management program?

Whether you are hiring an outsource bookkeeper or allowing a website developer to connect your ecommerce site to your accounting system, those third parties are bringing their “security hygiene” into your company. Having strong practices around evaluating vendors and the associated risks is part of a strong vendor management program.

With a growing number of threats daily, we help you keep up with ever-changing data security rules and regulations globally. We understand your regulatory world and create a program to help you stay on track.

Why do I need additional support for regulatory compliance?

We show you how to keep your data safe and to meet the regulatory environment for your organization. Whether you are subject to PCI compliance, ITAR, HIPAA or any other regulatory requirement, our professionals will help you understand what is required and take the necessary steps to upgrade security to meet the compliance environment.
